"This invention relates to an improved I structure which may begenerally entitled a magazine rack, and it has more particularreferenceto a unitary support for storage of extra magazines such as areused in association with linotype andintertype machines.

The improved structure has been designed with a view toward protectingand reserving the usual lower cross-bar on the magazine.

This bar, when placed on the machine, previous to seating the same inthe escapement box, is the guiding point of said seating 1n ,7 the box,and under present conditions of stortually causeswear on said .crossbar.

This therefore prevents desirable and perfect seating in the escapementbox. When perfect seating does not take place, there is a tendency forsaid escapement box to injure the lower escapement box entry on themagazine, thereby preventing free running of the mats in the magazineand eventually decidedly injuring the magazine and frequently ren deringit useless.

i The purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple andeconomical form of support and rack structure which will enable themagazine to be racked or stacked in close proximity in an Out-of-the-wayconvenient position while dormant and not in use, and in carrying theinventive conception into practice, I have developed a particular formof structure which, it is believed, will accomplish this result in apractical and dependable manner without injury to the magazine.

The particular structural details and their relative association andarrangement will become more readily apparent from the followingdescription and drawings.

In the drawings:

In operation, it is understood that the individual magazines are stackedin vertical or perpendicular relationship in the cage '13 and held inplace by the legs 12 and the retaining bars 15 and 16 as well as theguide means 17- and the roller equipped channel irons 18. This providesfor efi'ective'and ex- I peditlous storage of extra magazineswhllehaving the guide means 17 so located-as-to co-operate with the rollerson the irons18.

It is thought that persons skilled in the art to which the inventionrelates will be able to obtain aclear understanding of the. inventionafter considering the description in connection with the drawings.Therefore, a more lengthy description is regarded as unnecessary. Minorchanges in shape, size, and

- rearrangement of details coming within the field of invention claimedmay beresorted to in actual practice if desired.
